Eden

Eden is a reachable state of the mind,
not a territory where you want to relocate
once the energetic depletion of your time
bring to an end your physical state.

Eden is not the longing of a desert dweller
for a land filled with honey, milk and fruit.
The poor wretched didn't know any better
because the primitive mind was also mute.

Eden is the original you, the perfect core,
an amazingly atom less extension
of the universal consciousness; the store
of the unfathomable science of creation.
